Update:- BOUGHT IT!
See page 3..
This one, to be exact:-
I own a XR600R for the rougher stuff, but I want a bike that can do bigger distances more comfortably whilst not being shy to hit dirt trails. Let's say 60/40 road and dirt. Pillion must be comfortable, and long distance trips over many days mustn't be a butt killer.
I've read all the specs on this one vs the BMW F800GS and there's not a lot dividing them. I never thought I'd find myself eyeing a British bike, but the world isn't what it used to be, and neither am I.
PLEASE, if you're going to tell me to buy a BMW or KTM, etc, say WHY. All valid arguments will be taken into consideration, whilst meaningless pissing contests will not. Talking from experience will help me a lot in making a decision.
Thanks in advance!!
